Lesson64 TheChannel Tunnel
In l858,a French engineer, Aime Thome de Gamond, arrived in England with a plan for atwenty-one-mile tunnel under the English Channel. He said that it would be possible to build a platform in the centre of the Channel. This platform wouldserve as a port and a railway station. The tunnel would be well-ventilated iftall chimneys were built above sea-level. In 1860, a better plan was put forward by an Englishman, William Low. He suggested that a double railway tunnel shouldbe built. This would solve the problem of ventilation, for if a train enteredthis tunnel, it would draw in freshair behind it. Forty-two yearslater a tunnel was actually begun. If, at the time, the British had not fearedinvasion, it would have been completed. The world had to wait almost another100 years for the Channel Tunnel. It was officially opened on March 7, 1994,finally connecting Britain to the European continent
